SPQR Blues 2 part L

[spqrblues]

Chapter 2 Number 50, aka overall SPQR Blues Number 99.






Domitian is known to have written several books—on poetry, on law, and on baldness—which appear to have been relatively well received, even considering they were written by the Emperor's son.

P.S. - A winning roll of 3 sixes was called the "Venus" roll. Something to file in your Fun Roman Facts neurons.

Re: loaded dice

[(Anonymous)]

I don't claim to be an expert on loading dice, but I can think of several ways to make them favor one side. The corners could be a bit more bevelled here than they are there, so they roll over more easily, the entire die could be a bit off-square... after all, we are talking about handmade items here, you could load a bit of lead inside one of the pips, then lacquer it over or you could even use a piece of horn or bone that's slightly pithy on one side, hence heavier on the other. Yeah, any of those should have an effect on your rolls over the long term. Keep drawing, you're doing great. DRW.
